Hi

Recent Updates

Brief mention of me being greatTakes you away from this site, sadly.

A very interesting interview with Kaldor City tsar Alan Stevens, where he briefly mentions me. Just do a find for "very clever chap" and there I am. I think it's more based on my DWF review of Storm Mine than my failure to come up with an idea for a sequel.

Site Update and RedesignYes, it's all change. Have a look.

The old site was a nightmare to navigate, so I've had a massive sort through to try and resolve that. While I was at it, I updated all the PDFs, added a few bits and bobs and shifted the whole thing over to a new server. Why not take a look?

My name is Dale Smith, and for the 99% of you who don't know who I am, I'm a writer who's had a couple of Doctor Who novels published by various arms of the BBC and a handful of other spin-off stories published by people like Big Finish Productions and Telos Publishing.

Image of your host, Dale Smith For the 1% of people reading this who already know who I am: hi mum.

This website is mostly about my Doctor Who writing, pulling together fan-fiction stories with anthology and fanzine stories to get them all on the internet where you can properly enjoy them. But there are other bits and bobs on here too, such as information about my former life as an award-winning playwright or lots of unpublished non-Doctor stories that no-one has yet begged to publish.

The site is intended to be something of an online CV, so don't expect regular updates - but what you do have is tons of stories that you can read on the screen or download as PDFs to read at your leisure. If you think there's something I've missed that should be here, though, feel free to contact meYou won't find my email here though. and let me know.

The bar above contains links to all the main sections of this site, but if you're looking for something in particular the kind people at Google have given me a search function in exchange for putting some adverts on the site. If you happen to come across any of those adverts, treat them cautiously: they aren't endorsed by me, and are only there because they pay the nice people at Google lots of money.

You may also find that you get a warning from your firewall that it has blocked some Java on this site: its there to allow me to see how many people are visiting (using Google analyticsGoogle's free site statistics site.). If you don't trust me, feel free to keep it blocked - you'll still be able to access all of the content on the site.
